[quote=Anonymous] It's always the teacher, not the method. I'm sorry your child suffered like this, and I would be disturbed too. Did you ask other parents at that school what their experience was like? A child in our Montessori preschool cried like this every morning at drop-off. Then her next two years at the school went very well. She was apparently not mature enough that first year to handle school. Please do not bash the Montessori method. We love our Montessori preschool, as do other parents. A method can only be as good as the teacher, be it Waldorf, Emilio Reggio, play-based or Montessori. What matters is finding the right fit child to teacher. A good school for one type of child may not be for another type of child. And then sometimes, it's the child who has to mature. I'm glad he's feeling better at his new school. [/quote]
